The present disclosure provides a body fluid extract comprising micro RNA.

Extract from a body fluid comprising a micro RNA

The present invention provides a novel miRNA extraction method and a method for analyzing miRNA extracted by using said miRNA extraction method. According to the present invention, provided is, for example, a method for extracting miRNA from extracellular vesicles in a sample solution, by using a device capable of capturing extracellular vesicles, the miRNA extraction method comprising: an extracellular vesicle capturing step for capturing extracellular vesicles in a sample solution onto a device by bringing the sample solution and the device in contact with each other; and a miRNA extraction step for homogenizing the extracellular vesicles by bringing the device having captured the extracellular vesicles in contact with a homogenization liquid for extracellular vesicles to extract miRNA from the extracellular vesicle into the homogenization liquid.

Device to be used for capturing extracellular vesicles, and preservation method and transport method for extracellular vesicles

The present disclosure provides a device for separating biomolecules comprising a substrate having a planar surface, nanowires disposed on at least a portion of the planar surface, and a fluid chamber formed to include at least a portion of the nanowires.

Fluidic device and method for separating biomolecules

In a method for analyzing samples involving the use of a device for analyzing samples, the device for analyzing samples includes at least a movement part through which a sample moves, and a measurement unit that is formed in a middle of the movement part and that measures a value of an ion current when the sample passes through the movement part. The analysis method includes at least a measurement step for measuring the value of the ion current when the sample passes through the movement part, and a determination step for determining a change over time in a quantity of ions from the value of the ion current measured in the measurement step. The quantity of ions includes a quantity of ions that have leaked from the sample during movement of the sample through the movement part.
